:08:00
Well, Miss Bachman...
:08:03
the guys from the papers will be here
any minute, you know what I mean?

:08:06
- Maybe if you'll excuse...
- She's staying where she is.

:08:09
- What's the matter with you?
- I said she's staying where she is.

:08:11
- I'll wait in the hotel.
- Hotel? Jesus Christ!

:08:13
- You be nice now.
- Jackie, listen to me!

:08:15
First, they hate your guts
for fighting white guys, but okay.

:08:20
Then they hate you more
because you win.

:08:23
Still okay.
:08:25
Then they hate you so much, they're
willing to pay through the nose...

:08:29
to see you maybe
get knocked on your can.

:08:31
That's more than okay.
Cash in.

:08:33
After all, it's so nice to be colored.
You shouldn't have a bonus.

:08:37
But, sonny, when they start
hating you more than that, watch out.

:08:40
That means now.
I got ears! I get told things!

:08:43
Guys who want to put dope
into your food there.

:08:46
A guy who wants
to watch the fight behind a rifle.

:08:49
Okay, that we'll handle.
:08:51
But this, on top of it?
A white girl?

:08:55
Jackie, you want to
drive them crazy...

:08:58
What am I supposed to do?
:09:00
Stash her in a hole someplace in Niggertown
and go sneaking up there at 12:00 at night?

:09:04
Or carry her around with me
in a little box, like a pet bunny rabbit?

:09:07
- Jack, I...
- She put black on her face
and puff her mouth out...

:09:10
so nobody notice
I took nothin' from 'em.

:09:13
You know I fooled around plenty,
Goldie, and she know it too.

:09:16
She know it all, but I ain't foolin' around
this time, you understand?

:09:20
If he say, "That's what you said last time,"
I'll bust his nappy head.

:09:24
- I ain't said nothin'!
- Jack.

:09:27
I swear I'll help you, only
you shouldn't throw it in their faces.

:09:31
Go. Uh, sit.
:09:33
I just spoke with Chicago.
:09:41
- Five-to-one?
- Come on.! Five-to-one.

:09:43
- Hi, fellas! Hey, Smitty! How you doin'?
- Hi, Jack!

:09:46
Just a few questions, fellas, okay?
:09:49
- You sure look good, Jack.
- Thank you, boss.

:09:51
- Hey, Jackie boy.!
- What about the Fourth? Startin'to getjumpy?

:09:54
Yeah, I'm scared that Brady
gonna change his mind.

:09:56
- Think you can take him?
- I ain't saying I can take him straight off.

:09:59
Anyway, that'd be kinda mean.
Big holiday fight.
